Alfredo Morelos up for Rangers battle as he makes 'warrior' reference after bench role vs PSV

Alfredo Morelos is ready for the fight of getting back into the Rangers side as he made to reference to being a 'warrior' following the draw with PSV.

The Colombian was an unused substitute as Giovanni van Bronckhorst's men shared four goals with the Dutch giants in the first leg of their Champions League play-off tie. Ibrahim Sangaré opened the scoring in the first period following a scramble from a corner. However, just three minutes later Antonio Colak had the home fans roaring after superbly turning home James Tavernier's low cross. Tom Lawrence then turned the game on its head after he tried his luck with a long-range free-kick in a moment to forget for Walter Benitez. But Armando Obispo headed home from a corner to spare his team-mates blushes.

Summer recruit Colak put in a tireless shift up top as he battled and chased down every ball in front of a packed Ibrox. He has been preferred so far this season after he netted his fourth goal in four games. Morelos has been resigned to the bench as he continues his recovery from a long-term injury but he didn't taste any action last night.
